Guy Pretty vs. Girl Pretty: Huge Sunglasses

It's summer so of course I'm on the hunt for a new pair of sunglasses. I tend to stick with the cheapy varieties as I inevitably end up losing or accidentally breaking my shades within a few months of purchasing them. I usually stick with a classic style like Aviators or Wayfarers but I can't help but be tempted by some of the super gigantic pairs I've seen lately.

When it comes to big sunglasses, you either love em or hate em. I think they look adorable on most everyone and they seem perfect to wear on errand-filled days when you don't feel like wearing makeup. I had to hear what the fellas thought of this style so I reached out to a few of my guy friends. Here's what they had to say:

"Girls look ridiculous wearing them because sunglasses are supposed to fit on your face, not cover it." --Daniel, 26

"Big sunglasses are not hot. They look OK on some women but there has to be some sort of limit put on these things. They are more like clown glasses than sunglasses in some cases. Another argument I have heard for them is that Jackie O. wore big sunglasses like that. Even good looking women have started hiding their faces behind the huge glasses because they are in style and that's just a shame." --Nate, 29

"When I first noticed them, I thought they were horribly stupid and Elton John-esque. But they have grown on me and are actually one of the positives I notice on females nowadays. Maybe I'm just a sell-out." --Kevin, 27

Mixed bag, huh?

What do you ladies think of big sunglasses? Are they pretty or not so much? Do you ever wear them? Does your guy pay attention to your eyewear?
